First Joan Jett, now this? According to Dlisted, Britney Spears is looking to cover Blondie’s “Atomic” on her next studio album. Surely I’m not the only one who sees what this is: A desperate grasp to regain relevancy and her stardom after trashing her image so terribly for the last few years. Britney, luv… it’s […]

What's happening with MediaRebellion?
Good question. The truth is… we’re not sure. If you’ve never been here before… welcome, sorry there’s not much going on. If you are / were a regular… thanks for your patience.

Hiatus

“Out of the Blue and Into the Black”
